Answer: The correct answer for the first question is- B) Mechanical.
Adaptation can be described as a process of change in an organism over time that facilitates its survival in the changing environmental conditions. It results due to mutation or genetic change in the individual that gives a benefit to the organism. It exhibits change in structure ( like succulent plants in desert), function, or behavior.
Mechanical is not a type of adaptation as it deals with movement of objects.
The correct answer for second question is- C) Variations.
Variation among organisms in a population results from change in the genetic material or their genetic sequences. Change at the genetic level is thus reflected in the phenotypes ( like different color of feathers in birds).
Thus, difference is in the feather color reflects variations.
D. Ligaments are strong and flexible bands of connective tissue that holds bones together meeting at a point known as joints. The first option - tendons - is also a connective tissue but they attach muscle to the bone.
Answer:
The Inter-Tropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ)region gets the most direct sunlight at any given period in time. This in turn causes air to be unstable with a drop in pressure and rise of air which cools and condenses into clouds to form precipitation causing the wet season in the tropics.
In this region, the sun is directly or almost overhead as seen during summer periods in the tropics.
Only in areas of the North and South of the ITCZ known as doldrums which at times are parallel to the ITCZ do we have high pressure that aren't conducive to precipitation causing dry season in the tropics.
In the ITCZ zone, we also have the tropical rain forests along the equator with huge amount of all round rain for the year.
Along the equator, on either side of the rain forests we have the dry and wet forests with the savannah to the North of this region and the southern hemisphere to the south of these forests since these forests are seen mostly in the ITCZ than the savannahs.
Rain shadows and ocean cueeebts may at times cause some savannahs to be along the equator and some rain forests -wet and dry forests- to be positioned further form the equator.
Going to say like my teacher told me Thomas Malthus and Charles like two figures who influence Darwins theory’s influence through his book on the population principal Darwin had a parallel thinking in the concept of individual struggle and natural selection
